But I think I picked it up in "Game" the other day and it looks great on the cover shots ! I then put it down and bought "Ravenshield" instead, which also has a very nice box . The End.

I've got a copy. It certainly looks good and feels OK. The environments are massive....incredible. If you see a mountain on the horizon you can climb it (if you've got a 4WD of course!) It gives new meaning to 'drive anywhere' in a racing game. The racing itself is fairly bland. The cars have a decent feel with a nice cockpit view that you can look around with the left thumbstick which makes driving around so cool...you can look out the window and admire the scenery. I have to keep playing it to give a better opinion....all I've done is started a race and just gone off and explored the environment hehehhe. It's got plenty of options too, like being able to adjust the 'sim' aspects with slider bars, and being able to turn off all the annoying arcade like traits of other games. massivechicken "Jason Moyer" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Anyone pick this up yet (Xbox only) and care to offer an opinion? > > Jason
